Like a Good Neighbor

You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free.  But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.  For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."  Galatians 5:13-15

Observant
I have friends who returned to town after moving away for three years.  I showed up to help them unload the truck and observed something that was very cool.  Their next door neighbors were there to help them unload the truck as well.  It was clear that they had a relationship that was strong and had endured the absence. 

Journey
This made me think of my neighbors.  What kind of connections am I making with them?  How am I serving them?  Reaching out to them?  I know it can be difficult, especially when all we see is the garage door go up, the car drive in, and the garage door go down.  I observed something valuable between my friends and their neighbors that I think is worth the effort.
